Government/convener-quota seats are counselled by the Punjab State NEET-UG Counselling, while management and NRI seats follow the private-quota rounds.

To secure a seat, a NEET-qualified candidate registers for the relevant counselling, fills a preference list that includes Dayanand Medical College and Hospital, and is allotted a seat if their rank clears the closing rank for that quota and category in that round. Closing ranks move each year with the number of applicants and seats, so treat past cut-offs as guidance, not a guarantee.
